Some things said by my players, either as catch phrases, or spontaneous....

- "I dont do water"   by a dwarf that was allergic to salt water, couldnt swim at all, and only drank alcohol. You couldnt even get him on a boat or into the Gates Underground Hotel.

- "In your FACE!"  by a crazy elf that shot the squirt gun into peoples faces.

- "Ill think I hear my wife calling......."  After a very clean cut Face enters Aces bar an glitches an etiquette test.  The Face then double timed out of the face to seek his team for backup before returning :D

- This one isnt a line but, I had an adept that scared / intimitaded people into pissing themselves at least a half dozen times.

  • Good plans load the dice. Good stories trump them.

We have a free spirit in our game who possesses hosts. In the middle of a very intense moment, when I can get us out of trouble but I'm going to need a boost, I turn to him and say, utterly deadpan:

"Koan, this is the only time I'm ever going to say this to you, but... I need you inside me."
"My writing is more akin to a cook than a farmer: give me the pieces, and what comes out of it is greater than the sum of it's parts. Give me nothing, and I just stare dumbly. It's a failing, but then, it's also a living."


ShadowSea, for my players.

There are times i wish the +1s still exist. This is one of them.

The Face says to the mage: "Hey, can you turn the helicopter invisible?"
[moment of silence in which the player of the mage gets a very intent, thoughtful look on his face, hand on chin, and then nods three times and says]
Mage: "I....could set it on fire?"
[entire group erupts into 2 or 3 minutes of outright laughing.]

Preacher, the Mystic Theurge who is a defrocked Catholic priest surged into having angelic wings, is in this same group. The player has fallen asleep. I, as the GM, attract his attention to inform him it is his turn. He rouses, shouts Stunbolt in a stentorian voice, rolls his dice, and immediately passes back out without declaring the result. Later, he did almost the exact same thing twice more. Much later, he didn't remember the fight at all, when he finally woke up and stayed up.

How?

Either by passing his Intimidation with +4 net hits, or the enemy glitching in the opposed roll.  Obviuously, the pissing himself result is my chosen result.

Best line ever from my group, was when the thugish street sam was trying to distract the guards at the front gate of a building:

Tony Hez: "Hey, yo guard, I got a problem."
Guard walks over, placing a hand on his taser.
Tony Hez: "It's my gun.  It's got TOO MANY BULLETS." *Quickdraws*

From last night:
"I send the rest of the team somewhere they can't hurt themselves."
"When in doubt, C4" - Mythbusters. As true in 2070 as when it was first spoken.

"You're wearing WHAT?" - Group reaction when our street sam walked into a meet wearing light military armour.

Next week my Shadowrun group and I are going to finish an adventure we are in the middle of, which involves rescuing the girlfriend of my character from an anti-metahuman hate group. I plan to find the leader of this group an kill him 90s action movie style, by spouting a clever pre-mortem one liner and then blowing his head off with a shotgun, or possibly tossing off a building or into some sort of machine.

However I'm having trouble thinking of a good original pre-mortem one liner, all the ones I come up with have already been used in movies, and even then I can't think of very many.

So I was wondering if you guys could help me come up with some witty things to say before or after I kill the villian. Write down the one liner and the situation it should be used in.

For example.

"I hope you brought your wallet... because the rent in hell gets paid in advance!" (Can be used in most any situation)

"Cool off, asshole" (For when you toss an enemy into anything cold, e.g.: refridgerator, vat of dry ice, the villian is snow or ice themed)

"Screw you!" (For when you kill an enemy with a drill or screw driver)

"How shocking." (After you have electrocuted an enemy)

Original ones would be great but if you can only think of ones from movies those would be welcome too.

There's always the Scottish favourite if you're using a blade of some sort.

"Can ye mammie sew?" Slash, stab. "Well tell 'er to stitch tha'"

Also works with broken bottles and headbutts.

If you're on a roof, ask him if he'll help you with a question you've been struggling with and you'll let him go. Presumably he says yes, in which case say "Can a man evolve the ability to [start pushing him off the roof] fly if he really needs to?" Watch what happens and then ask a team mate "Do you think bouncing counts?"
